Application period: Dates specified on NTU Academic Calendar (from late June to early July)

Please note:
Undergraduate students who have completed at least one year of study may apply for inter-departmental transfer before the second academic year starts. A junior who applies for an inter-departmental transfer before the beginning of the third academic year may continue as a junior if transferring into his/her second major department or other departments of similar nature, or may start as a sophomore at departments of differing nature. In special circumstances, students may request before the beginning of the fourth academic year and continue as a senior if transferring into his/her second major department or departments of similar nature, or start as a junior in his/her minor department after approval. If the request is made in the final year of study, the student may transfer into a department of similar nature or his/her minor department after approval; the year of study depends on the courses he/she has taken and the number of credits he/she has attained.

Those who have extended their years of study are not eligible for inter-departmental transfer.

NTU undergraduates can only request for inter-departmental transfer once. Graduation will not be approved until all relevant requirements set by target departments have been fulfilled.

When transferring into a lower year of study, an undergraduate shall take courses and attain credits in compliance with the Required Course Curriculum prepared by the target department for its freshman. Overlapping years at the original and target departments will be excluded from the maximum years of study set by the target department.
